Arby's Readies Opening In Landmarked Brooklyn Space

Get ready for Curly Fries and Onion PetalsĀ® and Roast Beef galore, Brooklyn—Arby's is nearly ready to open its doors. Lost City reports from the landmarked Gage & Tollner space at 374 Fulton Street, and says the franchise will open in a few weeks. "Construction was underway today, with lots of activity inside. I must say, the famous interior, gas lights and all, looked in fine shape." Nothing a giant, neon Arby's hat won't fix.

NYU owns the land under the complex and two of the three towers (the third is a moderate-income housing complex for neighborhood residents NYU was required to build). [The University] wished to build a 40-story tower on the soon-to-be-landmarked open space north of the Picasso sculpture, blocking the public view of the art work. GVSHP adamantly opposed the plan, saying it violated the entire notion of landmarking the complex, and urged the LPC to protect the open space as part of its designation.
